this is a terrible thread title for quite an interesting story -- particularly for a guy who is a similar age to grigsby and has dealt with similar emotional issues. it does not, so far as i can tell, have a happy ending, at least not yet -- but i liked the article.

That's some truly serious depression if he's still talking like that with 2 hours with psychotherapists per week and provided he's compliant with his medication. For his sake, I hope he starts making some breakthroughs. I would question whether even if things stabilize a bit for him he'll ever be able to handle the marathon under a microscope that is a major league season. Good luck Derick, baseball or not I hope you stick with the treatment for as long as you need it.
